On 3 September we’re launching our powerful new report Nature Economics: Analysis of the case for Australian Government investment in nature at Parliament House, Canberra.
The report lays out the economic case for investing in nature – demonstrating how our forests, wetlands, reefs and wild places quietly underpin jobs, industries, regional economies and national wealth.
The evidence is clear: protecting nature delivers huge net economic benefits – and investing in nature is smart economic policy.
But we need your help to ensure this message reaches decision-makers.
Please email your MP or Senator and ask them to attend the launch of Nature Economics. They’ll hear directly from leading economists and business leaders about why funding nature is crucial for healthy communities, industry, and our economy.
Why this is important
Nature is in crisis – and it’s hurting our economy.
The government’s own State of the Environment Report warns that continued species loss and ecosystem decline are eroding the natural capital our economy depends on.
We’re undermining the very systems that support our clean water, productive farmland, natural disaster protection, and long-term prosperity.
Email your MP now and ask them to attend the report launch. It only takes a minute – and it could shape the future of nature in Australia.
